Message: [QUOTE="BlueMAB, post: 2835400, member: 920"] My point is that it does happen. I shouldn’t have used the word “inevitably”. But to people who are displaced, gentrification is certainly a dirty word. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t gentrify neighborhoods where possible. I never said that. But as much as it’s wrong to assume that it always means poor people are displaced it’s equally wrong to argue that poor people are never displaced.
